Annand Retreats
First year retreat at Trinity Retreat Center, 2024
Every semester Annand offers a one-day (or half-day) retreat exploring a particular way of encountering the Divine—centering prayer, for instance, or praying with art or movement, or listening to nature. These retreats are open to all Yale Divinity School students free of charge.
Annand is also a referral resource for individual and group retreats at retreat centers and religious houses within a comfortable travel distance from campus.
I appreciated the chance to spend intentional time together as a junior cohort, and to interact with others at the Retreat Center. The quiet of the space—indoors and outdoors—created opportunities for prayer, reflection, and wonderful conversations.
